We have selected Jacksonpollock.org as the world's very best website on Jackson Pollock.

The JacksonPollock.org website is most unusual. It opens as a single blank white page, with no introduction, explanatory text, navigation, or credits. There are no instructions, but by moving and clicking the cursor the user can create a unique Pollock-like painting on the screen.

The website is the work of Miltos Manetas, who was born in Athens, Greece, and divides his time between Los Angeles and Paris. He produces oil paintings of computer hardward, wires, and cables, and has exhibited vibracolour prints which are generated by computer. He has adopted the name NEEN for his art movement.

Jackson Pollock was an American painter who lived from 1912 until his death in a car accident near his Long Island home in 1956. He was a major force in the abstract expressionist movement. In November 2006 Jackson Pollock's painting 'No.5 1948' became the world's most expensive painting when it was sold at auction for $140 million.
